What Does a Rabbit’s Sudden ‘Airplane Ear’ Mean?
A rabbit's 'airplane ear' (one ear flopping up) can mean an impure lop bloodline, ear mites or inflammation, an ear strain from being lifted by the ears, or a calcium/trace-element deficiency. If there is no redness or pain, improve the diet; if there is, get a vet exam and treat mites or infection accordingly.
How to Choose the Best Bedding for Rabbits
Rabbit urine is very smelly; bedding in the cage absorbs urine, keeps the rabbit from prolonged contact with it, and reduces odor. But rabbits may eat bedding, so choose safe, dust-free, deodorizing material. This article compares common rabbit beddings.
How to Litter Train Your Rabbit
Rabbits learn litter use with patience in about ten days to two weeks. Set a low plastic tray with litter and a hay rack beside it, seed it with the rabbit's own droppings and urine, and reward success while cleaning misses with deodorizer and vinegar. Older rabbits learn faster, and intact rabbits mark territory when in heat, so neutering at 4 to 6 months (small/medium) or 8 to 9 months (large) curbs accidents.
Rabbit Feeding Habits and Eating Behavior
Rabbits are single-stomach herbivores that prefer plants, pellets and a little vegetable oil or sweet feed, with animal feed kept under 5%. They practice coprophagy — eating nutrient-rich soft cecotropes at night — and eat mostly after dusk, so sudden feed changes cause refusal and gut upset. Introduce any new feed, including animal protein during pregnancy or lactation, gradually.
